Against All Odds
Agnieszka Chylińska & LemOn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh
You′re the only one who really knew me at all
How can you just walk away from me?
When all I can do is watch you leave
'Cos we′ve shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears
So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
And there′s nothin′ left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Ooh, take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against the odds
And that′s what I've got to face
I wish, I could just make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There′s so much I need to say to you so many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all
So take a look at me now, well there′s just an empty space
And there's nothin' left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Now take a look at me now, ′cos there′s just an empty space
But to wait for you, is all I can do and that's what I′ve got to face
Take a good look at me now, 'cos I′ll still be standin' here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
It′s the chance I've gotta take
Take a look at me now

blagaaam... chylinska ma zdecydowanie zajebisty glos i jest to na poziomie swiatowym jednak w polsce (pewnie jak w kazdym kraju ) jest mnostwo wokalistek o swietnym swiatowym glosie.
ostrowska
lenda
bem
pronko
sosnicka (dla mnie kompletnie zmarnowany talent)
łobaszewska
ola (nie moge przypomniec sobie nazwiska ) z riders
i pewnie by sie znalazlo kilka innych jeszcze wokalistek.
oczywiscie czesc z nich to repertuar absolutnie nie rockowy ale tu sie liczy glos i warsztat.

Muszę stwierdzić że jeżeli masz rockową duszę nigdy jej nie ukryjesz. Agnieszka może wyglądać jak aniołek ale w momencie gdy poczuje muzykę sercem ,rock wychodzi z niej .

a to nie sa popisy?

śpiewała chylinska pop było źle, zrobiła się na lale, było źle, wróciła do pierwowzoru dalej źle. co za ludzie ... brak słów
jej ruchy są spójne z jej wykonaniem i ekspresją jaką ma w głosie. jest po prostu sobą i ja to cenię ponad wszystko. wykon super!
Tori Wojtczak
Pięknie ubrane słowa. Jest i będzie w każdej postaci naszą Agnieszką Chylinską, z cudownym głosem ❤️

Jedyne co jej zarzucam, to ten ubiór. Nie pasuje do niej. Kobieta rasowa, nie dla niej styl na lale

Poprostu wspaniałe 👍

Cała Aga, żadna kiecka, obcasy i makijaż nie zakryje jej rockowego stylu bycia, tak trzymaj :)
kazek wynalazek
To tak, masz racje, w Twojej definicji rocka po wydaniu modern rocking straciła swój rockowy styl :) . Ale czy to jest wyznacznik? Najwidoczniej mamy inne definicje rocka, o ile taka istnieje. Pozdrawiam.
